Jhohan Romaña on San Lorenzo future: "I'm staying, I'm happy" | OneFootball

San Lorenzo defender Jhohan Romaña assured that he will stay at San Lorenzo despite River's interest in signing him during this transfer window and that he is calm after a confrontation with the Cyclone's management.

"I'm fine now, but you know what I've been through these days, I never wanted to leave San Lorenzo, and many things were said that affected my family, but now I'm fine," the defender acknowledged in statements to TyC Sports.

The 27-year-old Colombian had assured prior to the 1-0 victory against Gimnasia de Mendoza that he would continue at the club, but after the match, he referred to the clash he had with some directors.

"He's a bad guy, he makes a circus on the field," said board member Ulises Morales after the defender stated, "They had to speak ill of me to look good with others." This exchange happened amid conflicting reports about a possible departure of the player.

Furthermore, after the Cyclone's first victory in this Apertura, Romaña made his position clear and stated that he never pressured to leave: "I had very big offers that would have changed my life and my family's. I stayed and I want to keep fighting."

Romaña was sought after by teams from Brazil and the United States, in addition to two offers from the Millionaires in the recent transfer market, the last one being 2,500,000 dollars for half of the transfer, which was rejected by San Lorenzo.

Finally, the player, who has played 85 matches and scored one goal for the club, concluded: "My family suffered a lot, I have codes. I know what I said, I'm a man of my word. I know what I said and I stand by it, I'm a man of my word, I'm here facing it."
